Hello everyone, I hope you're having a good time.
I'm facing a persistent issue with my Cisco 3750-48PS-S switch.
I've configured a DHCP pool for the 192.168.5.0/24 range with an excluded address range from 192.168.5.1 to 192.168.5.20.
Previously, I had a client with MAC address 00d2.34a7.59b1 that was manually assigned the IP address 192.168.5.16.
Now, I want to reassign this IP address (192.168.5.16) to a different client with MAC address 0045.48cf.b76. I've created a static DHCP binding for 192.168.5.16 to the new client's MAC address (0045.48cf.b76).
The output of show ip dhcp binding correctly shows the IP 192.168.5.16 bound to the new client's MAC address. However, the switch's ARP table still shows 192.168.5.16 mapped to the old client's MAC address (00d2.34a7.59b1). Pinging the new client at 192.168.5.16 is unsuccessful.
I've tried the following troubleshooting steps without success:
Despite all these efforts, the ARP table remains unchanged, and I can't reach the new client.
Any suggestions on what else I can do?

Hi,
The 1st point I see is that you show the original MAC address = 01d2.34a7.59b1
Mac addresses actually starting 01 sre reserved for muticast .. I think you need to recheck as you are missing a pair of digits.
Your MAC needs to be 14 digits for static DHCP binding
01 followed by 12 chars
The 01 in this instance means type of client is ETHERNET.
!
ip dhcp pool TEST
host 192.168.5.16 255.255.255.0
client-identifier 01AA.AABB.BBCC.CC
